Bakken

Just north of Copenhagen you will find Dyrehavsbakken - in short Bakken - which is the world's oldest amusement park.

The 431-year-old amusement park is located in the lush woodlands of Jægersborg Dyrehave, a wonderful green area, where you find yourself surrounded by 400-year-old trees and almost 2,000 free range deer. It is the perfect spot for a ride in a horse carriage or a picnic before your visit to Bakken.

With 33 roller coasters, ferris wheels, drop towers, and many more exciting and extreme adventures, Bakken offers more rides than any other amusement park in Scandinavia.

If you are more in the mood for quiet relaxation Bakken abounds in many places to eat, snack, or enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Or perhaps you fancy a pint of beer in the old London bus converted into a pub.

Among the evening entertainment not to be missed is the good old-fashioned cabaret at Bakkens Hvile. Here the 'singing girls' sing the frivolous songs they have been singing for the last 132 years.
